I'm I reading that right? my ISP uses 2 backbones(?) consolidated.net (as it always has) and then it uses a 2nd one (twtelecom.net). Is this normal could it be the reason why my internet is being glitchy?

*upto 3x faster then what my ISP offers *new this week but has happened a few time before
*very slow at peak times (12-2pm and 6-11pm) + large packet loss *8 months old but worst this week


/edit I did another trace when internet is running good same route but much better pings (<25ms)

No, the trace goes from your machine, and shows every hop it takes to get to the web server, your ISP doesn't own everything in between. Latency is also not an indication of your download/upload bandwidth.

As C0rr0sive said, consolidated.net is likely your ISP's however twtelecom is likely a stop in between your ISP and Google's network.

:/ probably but everything I've tracert (15+ sites) used twtelecom hops just though that was odd.

I've given up on my ISP I've started to look around for alternatives (cellular) found one that's $25 higher but probably a stable connection. Don't know if I'm within range tho they gota come out and check.
